Coláiste Íde

Boarding School for Girls

Dormitories

At Coláiste Íde we have four large dormitories where each girl has an individual room, with sink and wardrope. We do have a number of smaller rooms which are generally reserved for sisters though any remaining rooms are given out each year at the discretion of management.

The way we run boarding encourages the girls to appreciate the values of a community life. It engenders team spirit, helps girls learn to accept each other’s failings and to support each other in times of difficulty. As part of their education students at Coláiste Íde learn to respect their own and other people’s property, the importance of being kind and courteous and taking responsibility for one’s own actions. In an increasingly individualistic world, these qualities will stand to our boarders in their future lives.
